I got to save log, brb in a couple of minutes merrie60us: more dk blue like navy? mommaclara2001: Krafteame, do you have the cam, set to always to be on top? That will keep it so you can see. krafteame: what is she making? rossija9: a coleus leaf cane mommaclara2001: She is making leaves. norajean_sf: ok, back, any questions before I start experimenting with the color mix on a small scale? norajean_sf: who doesn't know about the Color Cards? norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/ColorCard/MainGroup norajean_sf: is anyone reading what I type or do I have to log back in? krafteame: Thank you bluebell5071: Im reading norajean_sf: can you see me type? norajean_sf: Ok, whew mommaclara2001: I can read you, NJ norajean_sf: I get worried when I'm on for more than a couple of hours, my type has been known to disappear norajean_sf: ok, so using the technique found on the Color Cards I'm going to experiment mixing colors on a small scale here norajean_sf: I have black, crimson and this Kato/Premo mix of God Only Knows for a purple norajean_sf: I'll cut out small circles of each color and mix those small circles norajean_sf: then see if it gives me the color that's close to what we see in the picture merrie60us: I am reading you norajean_sf: just letting you know what I'm doing before constructing the cane. merrie60us: and thouroughly enjoying this it's been a long time norajean_sf: Thanks Merrie, I'm just punchy with Yahoo Messenger glitches. norajean_sf: Ya, it has been a long time. This Marathon is to kick start my doing demos on a weekly basis again. sbjwh: I think the color in my pic is tooo pink, to brite. It's true color is closer to your mix norajean_sf: This last year I hadn't been able to do weekly demos because of family, health and computer stuff to deal with. krafteame has left the conference. norajean_sf: oops lost Lisa mousefingers1: just stuck my nose in. I think my pic froze norajean_sf: well I should mix these colors and see what's going on. mousefingers1: nope mousefingers1: I see YOU phyllisinvegas: lol phyllisinvegas: there she is mousefingers1: bye, back in a few phyllisinvegas: bye mousefingers1: Dad said tell ya "HI" thinks it's a great thing you are doing mommaclara2001: Bye merrie60us: a guild member did this phyllisinvegas: I love those little clay cutters with the plungers in them merrie60us: with the color squares for pearls mixes and wrote in on each piece. A lot of work but a great tool jannn7 has joined the conference. You have invited jannn7 to view your webcam. phyllisinvegas: wb joann mommaclara2001: Hi Jannn sbjwh: I think this particular coleus is in the 'Wizard' coleus family, very old, very familiar. norajean_sf: Well I think that the crimson, scrap purple and black in equal proportions gives us enough contrast for this coleus leaf merrie60us: HI jannn7: Hi everyone! norajean_sf: So I'll do that mix in a larger scale and the find some green. sbjwh: hi jann7 norajean_sf: http://www.kallus.com/otherplants/coleus/p001965.jpg norajean_sf: see how the green on this leaf isn't all the way across? phyllisinvegas: yes norajean_sf: It's sort of broken up with the darker color norajean_sf: we'll have to work that into the cane for the leaf segments krafteame has joined the conference. mommaclara2001: Thar will be something to see. I couldn't do it on my own. norajean_sf: I'm thinking that the leaf segments need to have the three colors and we need to work in the patterns before making the whole leaf cane. You have invited krafteame to view your webcam. norajean_sf: Well if we look at this leaf cane and think... ok, only one leaf segment at a time norajean_sf: then on that leaf segment what sort of snakes and sheets do we need to replicate that pattern norajean_sf: that's how I'm attacking it norajean_sf: http://www.kallus.com/otherplants/coleus/p001965.jpg norajean_sf: for Lisa mommaclara2001: ok. I know that you can do it. norajean_sf: so I'll mix more of this darker purple and then prepare some green. merrie60us: I love that picture almost looks like it is just a pink leaf! norajean_sf: I'm glad you feel that way Momma, my sites are filled with "almost but no cigar" efforts mommaclara2001: Well, they look perfect to us. norajean_sf: but if I experiment and miss the mark the new clayers can know that it is just part of the process. Door Bell. Brb merrie60us: :D norajean_sf: 5 minute break, brb sbjwh: And the good thing about the coleus is that every leaf is different, maybe I wont mess up with something like this phyllisinvegas: k merrie60us: k merrie60us: is that your son? lvmypolymerclay: now someone is at my door. I'll be back later hopefully.
